Looks ok and the ink cartridges aern't too expensive. Most of the reviews on the Amazon are positive. (I personally prefer Canon printers. Had an Epson and it really used up the ink cartridges).

Asda have these Epson SX215 for £47.
I know it`s slightly dearer but there`s never any trouble if things go wrong at Asda.
You can get the cartridges cheap on ebay if you search.

Canon good printers but horrendous the price of cartridges.

My first one was an Epsom and was a good machine and lasted a long time. Also, I found that cheap compatible ink worked fine with it. What I really wanted to say was don't buy a Lexmark. The price of ink is ridiculous and they seem to have prevented anyone selling compatibles. One of my friends has spent a fortune on original ink. My current one is an Hewlett Packard and is easy to use except that I never seem to be able to do a decent photo with it.

Just been looking in Amazon at their Printers . I have noticed some cartridges of inks are saying ' fully chipped', what does this mean please and does it have any bearing on the ones that are not?????

I've just bought a HP Deskjet F2480 Series (print, scan and copy) for £29.00 from Morrisons today if any use......not used much yet so cant vouch for it so soon but seems to be OK enough for our simple needs.

Maybe you would like to recommend a Brother in the price range the OP was talking about, £43, and also a link for their cheap cartridges,chipped or otherwise,compatible or otherwise.
